Taxonomic senior synonym: Galea (now Spiniferites) twistringiensis, by implication in Jain (1982, p.51), who considered Achomosphaera cambra to be a taxonomic junior synonym (at subspecific rank) of Hystrichosphaera ramosa var. multibrevis (as Spiniferites ramosus subsp. multibrevis), which is now considered to be a taxonomic junior synonym (at specific rank) of Galea (now Spiniferites) twistringiensis. Age: Late Cretaceous.
